HOW DO YOU FEEL? >> I WAS TALKING TO MY MOM THE OTHER NIGHT ABOUT ALL OF THIS.
AND I REALIZED I CAN'T FIND A WORD TO DESCRIBE HOW I FEEL. I'M JUST SO OVERJOYED AND
OVERWHELMED AND GRATEFUL AND, YOU KNOW, I POURED MY HEART AND SOUL INTO THIS FILM.
AND FOR IT TO BE LOVED BY THE WORLD AS DEEPLY AS I LOVED MAKING IT IS JUST INCREDIBLE
>> Jimmy: GOOD FOR YOU >> THANK YOU [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE
>> Jimmy: HOW DID -- EXPLAIN TO ME, HOW DOES THE MOVIE -- HOW DID IT COME ABOUT
>> SO, ABOUT FIVE YEARS AGO I WAS SHOOTING A SHOW IN PORTLAND CALLED "PRETTY LITTLE LIARS:
THE PERFECTIONISTS." AND MY INCREDIBLE DIRECTOR, LIZ ALLEN, SHE APPROACHED ME
AROUND CHRISTMAS TIME WITH A A SCRIPT AND SHE SAID, "MERRY EARLY
CHRISTMAS. AND IT SAID "PURPLE HEARTS." AND IT WAS A ROUGH DRAFT OF
THIS MOVIE AND SHE SAID THAT SHE WANTED TO EMBARK ON THIS JOURNEY AS MORE
THAN JUST ACTOR AND DIRECTOR, BUT AS PARTNERS AND PRODUCERS. AND THAT'S HOW THE JOURNEY
BEGAN. AND FIVE YEARS LATER, AFTER SHOOTING THE FILM, WRITING THE
SOUNDTRACK, PRODUCING IT, HERE WE ARE AND IT'S JUST BEEN THE MOST
INCREDIBLE JOURNEY >> Jimmy: BUT IT WAS KIND OF PERFECT FOR YOU BECAUSE YOU'RE
A GREAT SINGER AND A GREAT ACTOR. >> YOU ACTUALLY WANT TO KNOW
HOW SHE WANTED TO WORK WITH ME AGAIN? >> Jimmy: YEAH
>> I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WOODS IN PORTLAND SHOOTING A A DRAMATIC SCENE
AND BEFORE I DID MY DRAMATIC SCENES AT THE TIME, I HAD TO SING A SONG.
AND "STAR IS BORN" HAD JUST COME OUT AND I WAS BELTING.
I THOUGHT NO ONE COULD HEAR ME, THE ENDING SONG, "I'LL NEVER LOVE AGAIN."
AND SHE WAS LIKE -- SHE OVERHEARD THIS CRAZY GIRL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WOODS BELTING
"I'LL NEVER LOVE AGAIN." AND SHE'S LIKE, "I HAVE TO WORK WITH HER."
>> Jimmy: I HAVE TO FIND WHO THIS IS. >> SHE'S LIKE, "WHO IS THIS
GIRL!" >> Jimmy: OH, MY GOSH. WHAT ARE YOU DOING
AND SHE GOES -- YEAH >> I WAS SO GRATEFUL FOR THAT MOMENT
>> Jimmy: THANK YOU, GAGA. YEAH, THERE YOU GO >> THANK YOU
>> Jimmy: HAVE YOU ALWAYS WANTED TO SING AND ACT >> YEAH, I NEVER -
>> >> Jimmy: SINCE YOU REMEMBER >> I DON'T REMEMBER EVER NOT
WANTING TO DO THIS IT'S SO MUCH MORE THAN WHAT I DO
IT'S WHO I AM. >> Jimmy: AND A VERY SUPPORTIVE MOM, TOO
I GOT TO MEET YOUR BEAUTIFUL MOM BACKSTAGE. >> YES, YOU MET HER BACKSTAGE.
SHE'S MY EVERYTHING. SHE'S HERE IN THE AUDIENCE TONIGHT.
SO, THANK YOU, MOM >> Jimmy: YEAH [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE
GOOD JOB, MOM. FOR ANYONE WHO HASN'T SEEN "PURPLE HEARTS," YET, CAN YOU
SET IT UP FOR EVERYONE >> YEAH, SO "PURPLE HEARTS" TO ME IS A LOVE STORY
BUT IT'S SO MUCH MORE THAN A A LOVE STORY IT'S A STORY ABOUT TWO PEOPLE,
TWO HEARTS FROM OPPOSITE WORLDS ONE RED, ONE BLUE, WHO WERE
RAISED TO HATE EACH OTHER. WHO, THROUGH THE POWER OF LOVE, THEY COME TOGETHER AND FORM
A BEAUTIFUL SHADE OF PURPLE. AND IF LOVE CAN DO THIS WITH TWO HEARTS, IT'S WHAT THE WORLD
NEEDS NOW MORE THAN EVER >> Jimmy: YEAH, THAT IS EXACTLY RIGHT.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE I WANT TO SHOW EVERYONE A CLIP HERE'S SOFIA CARSON IN "PURPLE
HEARTS." TAKE A LOOK AT THIS.
>> WHAT DO YOU GET
>> YOU >> ME? >> YEAH, YEAH.
YOU'RE KIND OF PREDICTABLE I'VE -- I'VE MET YOUR TYPE BEFORE
YEAH >> OH, DO TELL >> DRIVE A LEXUS THAT YOUR
PARENTS PAID FOR BUT IT'S A HYBRID, SO IT'S OKAY
YOU PROBABLY TWEET A LOT ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE'S RIGHTS, BUT WHEN IT ACTUALLY COMES DOWN -
>> SORRY IT'S JUST FASCINATING TO ME. DO YOU HAVE A PHD IN
MANSPLAINING >> WHEN IT COMES DOWN TO FIGHTING FOR THESE RIGHTS, YOU
DON'T WANT TO DO ANYTHING, RIGHT? BECAUSE GUNS ARE MEAN AND
YOU'RE A PACIFIST. I GUESS IT'S OUR JOB TO GO OFF AND FIGHT THOSE BATTLES FOR
YOU, RIGHT I BET YOU HAVE A LITTLE PEACE/LOVE TATTOO ON YOUR BACK
TO PROVE IT. >> ON MY ASS ACTUALLY. WHICH YOU CAN'T TOUCH, BUT YOU
CAN KISS [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE >> Jimmy: OH, STOP
